Comments Thread For: Amir Khan at 147.5 at IBF's Check Weigh-In, Feels Great

[Money_May]

This is the problem with Khan fans. They know nothing about boxing yet pretend to be informed instead of just admitting they love kissing Amir's ass and don't really care for the sport in general.

First of Pauli was not Amir's mandatory. Where do you get off making up such bull**** that a simple google search will tell you isn't true?

Maidana was his mandatory at the time and he put that fight off intentionally to face the lightest puncher in the world.

Secondly when he did fight Maidana it was only because he was forced into doing so. If he were forced to fight Maidana (the interim champ) again he would vacate and fight some bum like Matthew Hatton instead.

Khan lowballed the hell out of Maidana to try to duck the fight every chance he had. Only after Maidana forced the purse bid and Khan realized nobody would take him seriously if he gave up the belt did he actually accept that fight.

So if we're being honest about it the fact of the matter is Maidana is the only real challenge Khan has ever faced and he had to be dragged kicking and screaming into the fight by his handlers because he would have preferred some bum like Salita or McCloskey or Pauli who couldn't crack an egg.

Says the guy who picked paulie to beat khan

[GG Magic]

No, these are his true colors

Ahh, now it makes sense.

A sizeable proportion of Khan haters, do so because he's a British Asian ******. I don't care what anyone says its a fact.

I'm tired of the hack journalism on this website.

Terrence Dooley is a British fanboy and not a legit writer.

Why even bother writing up some bull**** like this and leave out other relevant information such as how much Peterson weighed for his check in?

I am pretty sure Amir Khan isn't fighting himself, why do all the stories have to be one sided ass k*ssing affairs?

[joesaiditstrue]

And if he doesn't get ktfo will you hang your self please? See this is what's up with these jealous *****ez, every fight they'll just hope a fighter will lose and talk ****, and afterwards they'll call the loser overrated and go on to hope that the next challenge will beat fighter A.

loser

I think he's overhyped also, but I'm not gonna make a prediction that he's getting stopped. Fights like this are match-made, very carefully selected opposition. Notice how after he was put on ***** street against Maidana, they've matched him with guys who aren't punchers.

I'm no fan writer. Ironically I was accused of being a Khan, how do you say it, 'hater' in the past because I interviewed John Murray, Kell Brook and other fighters who called for Amir.

In regards to your point. I am not a time traveler unfortunately. I saw the SSN story as I was readying to nip out so sent the weight through as I assumed people would like to know it. News of Peterson's weigh in had not come through. The Sky reporter was with Khan in his room. I assume Lamont weighed in at his own hotel unless the promoters are so poor the two fighters had to room share, something I very much doubt.

It would have been great to skip forward to Peterson's weigh in or a news report on it but my DeLorean is in the chop shop at the moment. I daresay news of Lamont's weight will filter through at some point tonight. Boxingscene has our roving reporter Marty McFly on the case.

We'll keep you posted.

khan never beat maidana handily though take off the 10-8 round and the point deduction...... khan won with scores of 114-111 twice and 113-112 he would of been a razor thin decision

So to hate on khan your taking away the 10-8 round and the point deduction and you actually really honestly trying to say if these rounds didn't happen khan would of lost or come close to losing what are you on seriously these rounds happened an were part of the fight wtf seriously . your on a haters new level you me friend ..

i agree. . a lot of english people are racist towards him because they don't consider him a true "englishman". . . it's starting to get a little better now, because some want to start claiming him again because they realize how good he is, and the KO was a fluke. . . but it was so bad at one point, he wanted to come to America permanently where he felt like there wasn't as much discrimination and hatred. . .

Judah? Malignaggi only had speed, maidana only had power, Judah had a combination of both. Khan has also been chasing the number fighter in the division. He's on a mission to clear out the 140lb division. Give credit where its due.

Amir Khan's chin is like my ****s,

Soft and goes down at the slighting push.

Whether Khan wins or loses tonight, when he is finally tested all the Khan fans will see he just didn't measure up

Don't worry, we have it in hand. I nipped back to the night of the night, put a pillow on Maidana's right side and used Derren Brown mind magic to convince the ref that Rene was in fact trying to kill a fly with his elbow so that accounted for the point deduction.

It means that Amir still won but hey ho - I guess it was a deserved decision.
